Hello
I am trying to use the component PhotovoltaicsSurface to model energy generation on the roof of a building, and get a “Runtime error (ArgumentTypeException) : pvwatts() takes exactly 16 arguments (14 given)”. Unfortunately I am not able to understand which arguments I am missing.
I have checked the weather file and it doesn’t seem to be a problem since I have used it successfully for other PV simulations.
I greatly appreciate any help! Am attaching both photos and files.
Best regards

I see, thank you so much!
Unfortunately I have another problem. I cannot seem to find the components to input correct PVModuleSettings. Do I need a different plugin for those?
@AnnaghaMital This error is about Rhino unit setting. You perfer to use Meter as the default unit.
